Soda Geyser Car

Mentos and soda, the Soda Geyser Car is sure to keep your kids actively engaged in scientific learning. Once they assemble the car, kids will test Newton's laws of motion in a really fun, albeit a little messy, way that is great for some weekend fun or even as part of a science fair project on rocket propulsion. Those who have tried this experiment in the past know how difficult it can be to properly drop the Mentos into the soda. Steve Spangler and Be Amazing Toys solved this issue by including the Turbo Geyser Tube. With a simply pull of the red trigger pin, CO2 will quickly send the Mentos rocket car shooting across the ground. While the standard reaction will push the car over 100 feet, kids can experiment with their ratios of Mentos to soda to see which chemical reaction has the best initial burst of speed and which propels the car the farthest distance. If kids run out of soda and Mentos, the included cork and inflation needle can be used to convert the Soda Geyser Car into a water rocket car kit.

The user manual provides a wealth of information about Newton's three laws of motion, but each scientific principle is presented in a child-friendly way for increased comprehension. Plus, they are each accompanied by an experiment to ensure children gain educational value from such an exciting product. After walking kids through the basic experiments with the Soda Geyser Car, the manual lays out later experiments in a very science fair friendly way. It explains how to form a purpose, question, and hypothesis, and it helps them experiment, gather data, and form conclusions. An additional bonus is a whole page of variables with which kids can experiment as they develop their own science project ideas or use as inspiration to test the limits of their favorite new car. With over 15 fun activities for children to try, the manual will soon have children creating their own concoctions while they compete to set new land speed records with their rocket car.
